There are dried pomegranate seeds. So unbelievable tasty, and I guess even more packed with nutrition than he fresh ones per weight unit (as no water is presented). Dried pomegranate seeds can really be eaten as an even tastier replacement for candy. Eat them as they are, add them to your salads or mix with your breakfast cereals.
I don’t know where to buy them in the west. I saw them being sold in traditional health / nuts shops in Persia (Iran).
One other thing, when eating a fresh pomegranate, if you get some of the yellow inner peels fallen into the seeds that you are eating, don’t remove them. Eat them as well. It has more antioxidants than the seeds themselvesmale living
